Hitch for 2012 Airstream Bambi for Bike Rack
Question:
I own a 2012 Airstream Bambi 16foot Sport that has no rear bumper. Is it possible/advisable to mount a receiver hitch so that I can attach a bicycle rack to the rear of my Airstream? Id be carrying a max of two bicycles that weighed 100 lbs. total. Thanks for any advice.

Expert Reply:
You can attach a hitch to the frame of your 2012 Airstream Bambi with the Curt multi fit hitch # 13703 which fits all frame styles that are between 22 and 72 inches wide. This would be only option you'd have but also it is a really great option that does the job well. Then for a bike rack you'd need to go with something travel trailer approved since the ride quality is rougher there than at the rear of a vehicle. For that the Kuat Transfer part # KU84FR would be a great option that also has the capacity needed for your bikes as well.
